Next, head to Amanoiwato Shrine to experience the mystical charm of Japanese mythology. Amanoiwato Shrine is an ancient sacred site dedicated to Amaterasu Omikami.

In addition to the sacred pilgrimage of worshippers, you can also experience a traditional blessing ceremony. Afterwards, explore Takachiho Gorge, a beautiful valley formed by an ancient volcanic eruption. The cliffs towering on both sides of the valley and the Manai Falls, which give a sense of majestic nature. On the approximately 1 km promenade, you can leisurely stroll through unique scenery such as the "Kihachi Power Stone" and three arch bridges from different eras (Shinbashi Bridge, Showa Bridge, and Shinto Takachiho Bridge). In particular, the 70m-tall Sennin no Byobu Rock has a natural folding screen-like beauty.
